Anyone ran into this? All the sudden my steps do not want to stop extending and the gears are grinding.

This is a 2 step model on my 06 Fleetwood excursion

There is a limiter, but it's not a switch type limiter. I'm no electrician but I was just studying the steps helping a friend with his. Basically once the steps reach the stop the motor will draw more amps to try and keep pushing them, and the control board senses the amp draw and shuts off the motor. Sounds like that could have gone bad. However, if the gears are grinding my guess is they've already been damaged.

The gear in the gear box may be striped or the power window motor gear may be striped. You should have an AM Equipment brand power window motor on your step.
